CAMPUS UNIVERSITY Study abroad fair begins

More than 50 programs across six continents

By Sam Bohne Campus Editor

Students will get the chance to explore op- tions to broaden their knowledge and resume while visiting the Study Abroad Fair today. With more than 50 programs in six con- tinents, Eastern students of all ages and ma- jors have the option to spend time in another country to expand their knowledge and gain life experiences. The fair, staring at 10 a.m. in the Univer- sity Ballroom of the Martin Luther King Jr. University Union, will allow students to visit different booths and learn about study abroad options. Study Abroad Coordinator Lisa Brown said the fair will give students an easier way to an- swer their questions.

A company called Inflection released a new website called PeopleSmart.com Wednesday, which is a person search engine site. As the site is still new, questions arise on whether this innovation is necessary in a changing digital world or if it releases too much personal information. Inflection already houses the popular family history website archives.com, and now with the new people search, finding someone is even easier. In a day and age in which everything is listed online, privacy is a major concern. The idea of having all of one’s personal information online is a scary thought.
